I remember sitting with a broker several years ago as he began to tell me about selling homes way back when and how very little paperwork was involved. He told me back then some of the contracts were written on just one page. One page?! I was incredulous and amazed that the entire real estate transaction could be included in just one page! I thought...the text had to be very small in order to get EVERYTHING on that single piece of paper. While he was telling me the story, was busy writing as well. As he finished the story, and handed me the paper he was writing on...and this is what it said...ha-ha!   Wow! How times have changed! Of course at one time a handshake was good as a person's word as well!    <<<0>>> I am a professional licensed REALTOR® from the sunny St. George, Utah area th... 07/23/2009

My car overheated yesterday and as I stood next to it, steam coming from under the hood, coolant pooling under my car, no one stopped to HELP! A grandpa in a small pick-up, who I really thought would offer help, just looked over at me and continued driving! A 20-something year old man in a pumped up, jacked up pick up didn't even glance over at me and continued on. I know he had to have seen me but looked away as his truck approached... Not to mention a train of cars...just zooming by! I was there for 20 minutes in 100 degree heat... With one exception. an elderly woman in an older model car with an oxygen tube running up her nose! She stopped and asked if there was anything she could do for me...how sweet! So, I just wanted to say THANK YOU to the only person who offered help yesterday... 07/23/2009

Motivational Monday: Just Laugh...It Does A Body & Mind Good!    Laughter really is contagious! Have you ever noticed that when you hear a good belly laugh that you can't help but to chuckle yourself?   Laughter reduces stress levels. Having a stressful day? Stop and think of something funny that happened to you and let yourself go!    Laughter is good for the heart. Laughter lightens your mood by releasing endorphins into your body and elevating thought processes.   Laughter gives the abdomen a good workout. The more you laugh the more stomach muscles react, much like doing crunches.    So, next time you feel like crying or losing your temper...JUST LAUGH!   You will feel better!         >> I am a professional licensed REALTOR® from the sunny St. George, Utah area that assists buyers ... 07/13/2009

LOOK what my husband found on his way home yesterday!  He was driving on Interstate 15, took the Bluff Street Exit, stopped at the Stop Sign, looked over and saw this little kitten just off the road. There are 5 lanes of traffic...I'd hate to think of what could have happened! People impatiently started honking their horns - rush hour - as he stepped out of his truck to pick up this little ball of fur...he just ignored it while looking for others that may have been there. Realizing she was the only one, he hurried to get back in his truck and call me. I'd like to introduce the newest member of our family...any ideas on a name?! <<<0>>> I am a professional licensed REALTOR® from the sunny St. George, Utah area that assists buyers and sellers with the necessary tools and technologies to ... 07/12/2009

Are you going to answer the door when IT comes knocking? I'm talking about the negative, self-doubting thoughts that come creeping into your mind because of the national news, sensationalist mongers and just plain, ornery people who want to bring you into their little "unhappy-dissatisfied" circles? Are you going to partake, get discouraged and become "one of them" or are you going to repel these deal breakers and depression seekers? I refuse to become a part of something that is so easy to fall into...I intentionally surround myself with confident, capable people because I know that just maybe a little dose of that each day will enable me to continue moving forward at a positive pace. Is it easy to fight the negativity and self-doubt? NO! I see and hear it every single day but am learn... 07/11/2009
